r/bodrum

hello, i’m turkish but I haven’t been to bodrum since 2019 and i’m staying at my grandpa’s place in turgutreis with an american friend for the next 2 weeks. i am looking for a nice cheap beach where they may be other young people and the water will be nice to go into! it doesn’t have to be nearby, we have a car and don’t mind the drive for somewhere worth it

Merhabalar!! As the title suggests, if anyone has recently travelled to Bodrum, I would love to know current prices, especially for two students who will be travelling from Istanbul. I would be grateful if anyone can tell me how much:

- Accommodation (any resorts or hotels that are "affordable luxury" or clean/safe and have beach access.

- Menu prices for places like Bagatelle, Zuma etc. And if there are any entry fees for these places.

- Area suggestions (anywhere clean, safe and close to the nightlife/party places.

- Transportation (I am used to the taxis in Istanbul, are the prices fairly the same or do they overcharge? Is there any public mode of transport?)

Moreover, what would you suggest as an activity, places to see etc? Any good hidden gems?

I do not have a budget in mind yet, hence why I want to know the prices so I know how we should manage.

Thank you so much for your help :)

Bodruma yeni taşındık 19 yaşındayım kızım paten kaymayı çok seviyorum nerede kayabilirim. Yurt dışında okuyorum dolayısıyla burayı çok keşfedecek vaktim olmadı. Arkadaş edinmekte isterim beraber kayacak (arkadaş edinme kısmı önemli paten olmasa da olur elbet) ekim’e kadar buradayım bir öneriniz var mıdır?
